I was completely engrossed in Zeitoun’s experiences. Eggers does an excellent job portraying the chaos and devastation of Katrina. Highly recommend this book!
Kanishka Sharma –
Zeitoun’s bravery is inspiring, but the legal ordeal is frustrating to read. It highlights the injustices faced post-Katrina. Overall, a worthwhile but heavy book.

Eggers masterfully tells Zeitoun’s harrowing tale. The book is well-written and thought-provoking, I would recommend. It will stay with you long after you finish.

While Zeitoun’s actions are admirable, the book felt somewhat slow-paced. The injustice he faced is infuriating, but the narrative could have been tighter.
Tanishq Gupta –
An important story about the aftermath of Katrina and the human spirit. Some parts were hard to get through, but the book’s message is ultimately hopeful.

A truly moving account of one man’s experience during Katrina. While the writing style felt a bit detached at times, the story’s impact is undeniable.
Shradha Chhatwal –
A mixed bag. Zeitoun’s courage is undeniable, but the writing felt a bit preachy at times. Still, a worthwhile read to understand the complexities of Katrina.

Zeitoun’s story is compelling, showcasing resilience during Katrina. The shift from hero to victim is jarring, but Eggers’ writing kept me hooked. A powerful, if unsettling, read.
